Okay, I got a request for someone to replay the game again. So I'll do it just for Jeff, and for anyone else who wishes to play. You ready to play, Jeff? Even though the show is cancelled and the models are out of work (minus Patricia and Tameka, who are doing fine on the syndicated show), I've brought them back to play one more game. Here we go, Jeff. 26 lovely models, holding 26 identical cases, with 26 different amounts of money. We don't know what is in which case, but we do know that one case will be holding the top prize of $1,000,000!

Now what I need for you to do Jeff is to select that all-important briefcase. Which of the 26 cases do you think holds the lovely prize of $1,000,000?

Yes. He has to do that in order to let the emcee know the amount of the deal; the emcee then passes this info on to the contestant.

Don't worry Frank, I got it. :D

To the cases! Number 19. Amanza, it's you who's holding the case. It's too bad we didn't get to know you much, what with a long hiatus and now cancellation. Open the case while you're at it. :)

Amanza: Good start!

$300

Very good, Jeff. :) Moving on to number 3 and the lovely Lisa, our veteran who's now out of a job. Maybe you could be one of the case-holders on the daytime program. At least you have a chance of winning money, and you can do what you're a pro at doing. :)

Lisa: Sounds like a good idea.

Let's open the case in the meantime.

Lisa: Not bad!

$5,000

Ditto. :) On to 24. Kelly, you're also out of a job. Have you considered what I told Lisa?

Kelly: Yeah, but wouldn't the producers be suspicious if we all started appearing on the show?

True, but be sporadic. They won't know. Open the case for now.

$75

We're doing very fine, Jeff! Let's knock on wood so as to not jinx this. On to 10 and another veteran out of a job, Anya.

Anya: Well, actually I'm hosting with Lindsay HDNet's Get Out!, so I'm very much not jobless at the moment.

Ah yes, I remember now! How was Belize?

Anya: Fantastic!

Good to hear. Open the case, please.

Anya: ¡Muy bien!

$750

Going good so far! To number 6 and Megan, who's also been here since the beginning. How's it going?

Megan: It goes good. Too bad viewership went down on our version, and now 24 of us aren't on the show anymore. I'm gonna miss getting my boobs taped together so they look the same as all the other models.

You're very right, though. They do in fact do that. Open the case, please.

Megan: Not bad.

$75,000

Could be better. Last case is Marisa and 18. You were Desperate Housewives and Dexter, I hear?

A very nice looking board, Jeff. (phone rings) Uh oh, it's Banker Time. Let's see what he has to say via Speakerphone.

Banker: Well, it looks like we have a newbie to the this game. I can guarantee you that beginner's luck will be non-existent after this round. You were lucky, I'll hand that to you, but I recommend you take my offer of $77,000 and get the hell out! And don't go crying to mommy and daddy if you knock out all your large amounts later in the game. (click)

Josh: Harsh words. Anyways, Jeff. A good round, a good offer. Accept $77,000; it is yours. Say No Deal, we're opening up 5 cases before you can be offered some more (hopefully bigger) cash. So: Deal...or No Deal?

Subject:Re: Deal...or No Deal?

Written By:nallyon07/21/09 at 12:47 pm

Jeff: Well, I'm glad I kept all the six-figure amounts in play. (By the way, I'm 29 years old, from southern California, looking for work. Not much else to say about me right now.) Anyho, $77,000 is a lotta money...but not large enough. So I'm gonna have to say...

NO DEAL!

Subject:Re: Deal...or No Deal?

Written By:nondiva234on08/02/09 at 3:05 am

Sorry to keep you waiting so long, Jeff. I've been away from the forum for a while. Anyways, once you say NO DEAL, feel free to list the cases you wish to open, to save time. :) Let's open five now.

Banker: To Mr. Jeff here now. You hit a big amount that round. I hope that fortells a bad game for you. Take this offer and run, I tell ya. Seriously. Look at me! Oh wait, you can only see a silhouette of me. Never mind, scrap that idea. My offer is $91,000.

A pretty good offer. Again, you do have the big odds, based on your board, of winning big. Wanna go on? Then say No Deal; it's four cases to open should you proceed. Or you can opt out of the game now. So Jeff: Deal...or No Deal?

Patricia: Nice!

$1,000

On we go in hope of low amounts. To 21 and Tameka, who still has a job with the show as well. Open the case, please!

Tameka: You on a hot roll right now!

$400

Cross your fingers, Jeff. We could be giving away a million this game! To 2 and Stacey. Unfortunately, we don't see her weekdays. Isn't that a shame?

Stacey: It is, yes it is.

Open the case, please.

Your board is amazing! But there's that big leap there from $500 to $100,000. It may be wise to avoid opening the low high amounts just to avoid increasing the leap there. (phone rings) Anyways, I'm expecting six-figures right now. Banker?

Banker: Sigh. Yes, Jeff, you're getting your damned six figure amount. How about $156,000? That oughta do the trick!

The Banker is smart, Jeff, but I know that you're smarter. Lots of money he's offering you. As the French might say: "cent cinquante-six mille dollars." Or as the Spanish would say: "ciento cincuenta y seis mil dólares." Take it, or open another three cases before the Banker can give you a fourth offer. Deal...or No Deal?

Subject:Re: Deal...or No Deal?

Written By:nallyon08/14/09 at 12:35 am

Six figures...that is a nice amount, Mr. Banker...but not decent enough, I don't think. If I say deal right now, I might regret it...but if I say no deal, chances are I might open up some of the big amounts, since I would need to open three cases. But again, I could knock out all the little amounts.

Gee, this does require a lot of careful thought. If I had family members in the audience right now, they'd probably give me mixed signals. Some of them would probably shout, "Deal! Deal!", and others would say the opposite.

But I'm going to make up my mind.

NO DEAL!

(phone rings) I anticipate bad news. Hello, Banker.

Banker: Actually, this isn’t bad news after all. I’m actually going to make an interesting deal with Jeff here.

Listen here, Jeff. This is what I’m going to offer you. If you decide to stop the game right now and say Deal, I’ll offer you $99,000. But if you say No Deal, there will be a whole new dimension to this game.

Should you say No Deal, you will be committing yourself to donating a portion of your winnings to me. How much depends on whether or not you beat me at my own game. If your valued case is higher than the offer you have dealt at, then I will take 50% of your winnings, no matter how big or small. If your valued case is smaller than the offer you have taken, I will only take 5% of your winnings. If you make it to the end, the rules are the same: 50% if you win the smaller valued case or 5% if you win the higher valued case. The only exception will be the $1,000,000, of which I will not take any money away.Here’s hoping it’s a lose-lose situation for you, Jeff. Whaddya say?

Josh: Wow, I’ve never seen the Banker do something like this before! Are you willing to go on, Jeff? Remember that you need to play a perfect game so the Banker won’t take your fortune away. Of course, there’s the $99,000 on the table for you to quit right now. So: Deal…or No Deal?

Subject:Re: Deal...or No Deal?

Written By:nallyon09/07/09 at 12:49 am

Oh no!! Only two of the big amounts are still in play!! :o

Of course, if I say no deal, that means I have to open two more cases. And there's the chance I'd knock out the two big amounts in the process. What to do, what to do?? $99,000 is a lot of money to risk here.

After contemplating the situation, I will opt for...

NO DEAL!

Okay, I kept the two top amounts in play. Good! So if I say No Deal, I will only need to open one case. In that event, I would for sure keep one of the big amounts in play (or perhaps both). There are six cases left, so there is a 33 1/3% chance that my case holds a big amount (which is a pretty good odds).

NO DEAL!

What to do, what to do...

Still thinking....

Oh gosh, if I say no deal, I have a 1-in-5 chance of hitting the million in whatever case number I select to have opened. And if I do that, then the next offer will for sure lack a comma, and I'll regret having made that decision. OTOH, the odds are greater in knocking out one of the tiny amounts. Still, that puts me in a precarious situation.

$501,000

Your case may have $500, meaning you'll leave here $190,000 richer, or your case may have $1,000,000, meaning you're leaving here $100,000 richer. What's it going to be? You sold case #11 for $200,000. And inside the case is:

$50

Excellent! You made a good deal! $190,000 is yours! And in case 4:

$1,000,000

Thanks for playing, Jeff. I apologize for this game taking so long. But I hope you enjoyed playing it. :)

$190,000? I thought I took the deal for $200k?? ??? Whatever the deal is, I'm perfectly fine with it, cuz I walked away at the right time.

Yeah, I had fun playing it, even if it did take longer than expected. :)
